Subject: [PATCH] select GENERIC_ATOMIC64 for c6x/score/unicore32 archs

Sorry I have no compilers for build testing these changes, however the
risk looks low and it's much better than to leave the arch broken,
considering that Eric will do atomic64_t in the core fs/namespace.c code.

Andrew: the arch maintainers have been CCed. Best is the maintainers
respond, test and perhaps take the corresponding change. Let's see how
this will work out..
